#121 - Breaking down the Draws

We’re starting to close out 2023, and we begin by recapping the Copa América Draw and the W Gold Cup Draw on Episode 121.

The USMNT will host the 2024 Copa América, and we know now where they will play and whom. The USMNT drew Uruguay, Panama, and Bolivia in Group C and will play their group stage matches in Arlington, Texas; Atlanta; and Kansas City. We go through the draw to discuss what the path looks like for the United States and who they could face should they advance to the knockout stage.

After the break, we put the W Gold Cup on the stage, as their draw occurred just a few days after the Copa América Draw. The USWNT were matched up with Mexico, Argentina, and the winner of a playoff between Guyana and the Dominican Republic. All group stage matches will take place in Carson, California and will see the USWNT remain in Southern California (LA and San Diego) for the duration of the tournament. We review that draw and what the USWNT should expect in the first edition of the W Gold Cup.
